BE 5310. BIOMECHANICS AND FLUID FLOW WITH COMPUTATIONAL LAB. 3 Hours.

Follow an introduction to the basics of solid, fluid mechanics, student learn the fundamental behavior of various biological materials, flow properties of blood, viscoelastic properties of cells, tissue matrix, as well as their roles in human physiology at normal and disease states. Examples also include the design aspects of medical prosthetic devices. The course will cover biomechanics across a wide range of scales from organism, organ, tissue, cell and to protein levels. Students learn computational modeling to formulate and solve bioengineering problems. Prerequisite: Undergraduate solid and fluid mechanics courses or consent of the instructor.
